      doing a "study" on this is retarded, IMO. OTOH, it's an actual issue. You may or may not have seen that I was at a work offsite last week, and staying keto was ... HARD. Small bits of meat, huge piles of salad to fill belly, skip the pasta salad, the rolls, the pastries, the...

      Plus, you end up being ‘that guy’ for not participating in the weekly cake, pizza, etc.

      I don't give a fig about the opinions of ~7 billion people. ...but I care a TON about the opinions of 10 or 15. This commitment is in front of ~4.5k followers...but that's REALLY to put it in front of those dozen.
